| clippers I give up on finding a groomer that I am happy with. I have decided to forgo the stress on my 2 and do it myself. Mo is a very hairy boy. The hair in between his pads on his feet grow so fast. What is the best way to trim them and how? Scissors? Clippers? I am nervous about the feet, the nails, and the ears. If the answer is clippers, are there any suggestions as to which ones? Thanks!

| I remember that feeling and still have it two years later. I got pretty good with the feet, finally. I use a Wahl moustache trimmer on the butt and feet. It will not cut so don't be too afraid. Go between the pads with it and dig out the hair growing there. To trim the hair on top, place the foot down and use scissors to trim around the foot in a circular motion following the outline of the foot. Perfect feet. Good luck, |

| No I don't use the trimmer's on the top of the feet. Just comb the hair forward and cut with scissors around the shape of the foot right along the nail line I would say but not above the nail or it will be too short. |
